HEALTHY, YOUTHFUL SKIN STARTS WITH A DAILY SPF THAT WON’T WEIGH YOU DOWN

By Tristan Dyer

Protecting your skin against UV (ultraviolet) radiation is a year-round commitment that will reveal ample rewards in the long run. Utilizing products with SPF (sun protection factor) actively prevents the accumulation of layers of skin damage, thereby greatly reducing one’s risk of skin cancer and combating signs of premature aging. In recent years, the use of sunscreen has soared in popularity, with many high-end brands now off ering options for all skin types as well as eco-friendly alternatives. When searching for a product, remember that texture is key, so beware of oily and dense formulas that are prone to block pores and cause breakouts. The pursuit for the perfect facial sunscreen to integrate into your morning routine ends here with these six lightweight products.
